Defect Summary: Airstream is recalling 6 my 2003-2006 35xl, and 355xl motor homes equipped with axles that include bosch zops or zoht pin slide hydraulic disc brakes.

Consequence Summary: The driver would normally detect the brake drag but if undetected the temperature increase at the wheel end can eventually lead to soft pedal conditions due to brake fluid boil, and possible extended stopping distance increasing the risk of a crash.
